This thread when there's nothing to talk about: 1. NFR and COCC slander 2. Artwork slander 3. Lana's irresponsibility with dates 4. Jack hategate 5. Lana is lazy 6. Nikki Lane hategate 7. Piano flops 8. Lana and politics

We know, babe; we’ve already seen your other 300 replies in here saying the same thing. Move on to the Charli thread, pls

So... TFJ - EH - FROOT - L+F???

nfr & cotcc slander is overrated

I miss when y'all would just discuss vinyl colors and flowers #MakeLanaBoardsGreatAgain

some of the people here have SUCH a problem with saying shit about every aspect of her life, even saying shit about her appearence, nitpicking about her highlights or discussing her weight, it's really invasive and weird... i just feel like there's hardly any compassion towards her, it's honestly really upsetting

Queen of killing her own era

I'm starting to think this album will have nothing to do with revenge, I'm getting the feeling it's the same situation when she describes her next album and it end up sounding nothing like she said my expectations for this album is honestly at the lowest bar possible right now, even though I'm still in love with the 3 singles I just don't think she's gonna pull half of the things we're expecting in terms of revenge and such, only the "I'm telling my own story" thing seems legit

Dumb theory but hear me out... so far all three singles reference some type of song: Blue Banisters: "Diamonds and Rust" Text Book: "Old Man River" Wildflower Wildfire: "Comfortably Numb" & "Lithium" (the lithium one could be a stretch but whatever) Now yeah I know Lala likes to make references to songs but... it's just very prominent in those three tracks and it could be a recurring theme throughout the album With that being said - according to BOZ a leaked song could show up on this album and the only one that could blend in with the album's sound and contents so far that I could think of would be "Thunder". Thunder references "Mr. Brightside" and yes I'm a delulu at heart - and even tho we love you "Cherry Blossom" I really think a reworked version of "Thunder" would work really well with the album since it features the same lounge singer vibe as "Text Book" and "Wildflower Wildfire" - and because of Daddy Dawes

What is the opposite of a hater? A lover? I think I am one of those.

what a lot of people here still don’t get is yeah sure the lyrics are great, they always have been. but after all the poetry, nfr, the "deep lyrics" a lot of us just want PRODUCTION again. no matter what kind but something with OOMPH and BASS. especially when the lyrics discussion is a bit…eh. does she write better today than ten years ago? absolutely. would i take another video games (lyrically and production wise) over her reciting her grocery lists and mentioning nikki or courtney for the 10th time ? absolutely fucking yes.

THIS ABSOLUTE SERVEEE OH MY GOD this is about to be her best video i fear...

so much negativity today. i'll pray for most of you.

finally some promo

nope this thread is a whole funeral rn

I hope she'll serve another "Get Free" tier finale and not another cover flop

Let this be clear, I'm not not a fan of disturbing art - but there has to be a place in Lana‘s recent discography for a beautiful album cover. Im fed up with other stans saying that I should wish for a non-glamorous cover when in reality I'm just a glamorous person. Can Lana please go back to covers where she feels embodied, beautiful by being in love even if the relationship is not perfect, or where she is dancing for money - or whatever she want -without being crucified??????

It just dawned on me that i really missed lana's voice accompanied by violins

Everything is a ‘disrespect to Lana and her work’ these days we need to stop being sensitive to criticism towards her. If you look at it this way it might even be a compliment…Producing a whole album by yourself is no easy feat and I think she could do it.

I still wish that we'd gotten something similar to her Interview Magazine video/shoot from September of last year for last era or this era. Everything about that was a 10/10 for me, and it matched up so well with the pictures/videos of her wearing pearls and reading Violet (and the birds Instagram story post). Part of me still thinks it could make a comeback for this era, but I really don't know what to expect from BB anymore lol. Weirdly enough, it doesn't feel like the three singles were the start to the era for me, but more so a precursor to it

exactly the joni mitchell wannabe “i occasionally sleep in the woods" canyon girl cosplay has been going on for long enough. what’s even wrong with wanting a well thought out, eventful era with concerts, live performances, clear info, great photoshoots and most importantly someone who at least PRETENDS to somewhat care about her art. and i agree the fact random people with a smartphone, an online thread and stalker tendencies like us come up with better ideas, concepts, covers and designs than a whole modern "pop star" with a huge record label on her side is just beyond me. like at this point just hire someone from here and we’ll do half your work for you…for free ().

Some of the tracks are so intimate (particularly WW) that it’s difficult to imagine her lip-syncing them for a super polished video. I figure this will be an unpopular opinion, but if she were to assign a music video to something like WW, I think it would benefit from her early DIY approaches (think Video Games or Carmen). I think this would really allow the lyrics to speak for themselves while also granting her the freedom to insert little clips from different media she feels would enhance her narrative. Also, it would be a full-circle moment in returning to her roots and reclaiming her past, but that’s just me lol

I wish i was excited for this album revenge my ass

Am I the only one who has the impression that this era is going to go more unnoticed than Chemtrails? I am not manifesting it of course, but honestly when Lana said she wanted revenge I didn't imagine three ballads. It should be noted that I love the three songs, but when I thought about revenge I imagined a cover like Lorde's and now that I brought up Lorde's comeback; if Lana's album comes out close to Lorde and Billie's releases, it is likely that they overshadow Lana, starting with the fact that Billie is quite popular now and Lorde had 4 years without releasing music and appeared with such a service.

Do you guys not have anything to do? A hobby or a job?

we're living in a world where we're pushing inclusivity and self-love yet i feel like i often see people speaking about her appearence, it's honestly sick, in a world where photoshop & toxic beauty standards are rampant, she keeps it real & geniune and that's honestly very rare with celebrities, we shouldn't nitpick over stuff that's ultimately not a big deal

or like the bridge of shades of cool too where she's jsut moaning shit over guitar like give me some more of that girlie

Another review: https://www.gigwise.com/reviews/3399718/album-review-marina-ancient-dreams-in-a-modern-land They gave her 10/10 and said that she was stepping into summer with the album of the year. I can't

can’t wait for her to show miss "this isn’t a healthy mindset for young girls" and the poor one how it’s done this summer

she's quiet cus lorde and marina are active, her arch nemesis.. you can recover by releasing the album.

you bitches are just unhinged unhappy strange and wild

Didn't Chuck shoot Honeymoon? I love that cover and I think that she can do great things. It's Lana who needs a new creative outlet and concentrates more on her creative vision. She sold herself not only as a singer, but as a visual artist as well. It's really unfair on her part not to put any effort into that. Minimalistic is one thing, lack of vision and laziness is in a completely different range

so you calling this tacky? oh honey...

Delete it

Her revenge will be guilty. She will tell the heaviest stories about her life, inciting guilt in everyone that criticized her

Because when Lorde announces a date then something actually happens on that date Unlike someone

wait i love this album now the way they switch

And when im feeling bloated you give in and see my diapers loaded The wipes you use they clean me up as you focus

Here's my TPNO. I did what I could with a 128kbps acapella and instrumental https://dbree.org/v/60bebf

This whole thread is just the same discourse and back-and-forth every few days with silence in between Nothing about it feels like it's to talk about the album, just rehashing what's already been said since the Chemtrails prerelease thread. At the end of the day, people can have their opinions, but I feel like I've heard everyone's a thousand times now (including my own)

Can y'all fucking stop with this? Y'all did this during the Honeymoon era, and you're doing it again now. Weight fluctuates. Who gives a fuck. The state of the world is in fucking turmoil right now and all you care about is her weight and diagnosing her with a mental illness that you "heard" from someone?

Did someone forget we got a neil krug shoot or

Didn't Katy Perry eventually decide to go with a fan's artwork of her recent album? Lana take notes! Honestly the artwork some of you create for Lana is astounding, like genuine talent right there. It's lowkey embarrassing how a major label can't produce the same level of effort when it comes to the aesthetic side of things. It's not asking for the whole world. What's so bad about having a cover that truly conveys the overall theme and meaning of the music?

this “the lyrics are good therefor everything else can suck" mindset is just so so tired. i wanna stan a musician not a poet

i kinda feel a bit like this tbh. i loved nfr but it never hit me like others did before. i loved cocc but it feels like a 9 track ep with something missing. i loved the 3 singles and i still listen to them a lot but they aren’t necessarily new or groundbreaking sound wise. i feel like i’ll give her a last chance with this album (and probably the one after cause i’m a weak bitch) but if this ends up as another "let’s strip it back to pretend it’s deeper than it is" album that’ll feel like it’s missing that certain…magic, fullness, replay value, excitement whatever you wanna call it then….truly idk…but i honestly don’t see myself stanning same sounding piano ballads for forever let’s just say that (or maybe i’ll do but i’ll be pretty pissed about it and complain a lot).

i dont think the revenge thing is that big of a deal, i literally don't think it means anything, you know when you just say shit in the heat of the moment and then forget 5 mins later

ok that’s it manifesting lana’s bare ass cheeks on the cover LETS GO cola pt 2 coming ??

Not complaining about the artwork, just imagining I know that the majority feels like the Man's World cover is disconnected from the other's, but I think that it fits with the record's name I would love if this was the original artwork for the record. When she said Ancient Dreams in a Modern Land, I thought that was also going to explore more those ideas along the record and also being inspired musically by it. How apparently none of this happened, I think that the cover of Man's World could reinforce the concept. It's very ancient inspired with a contemporary twist. The perfect package for the modern music. Summarizing: We had too much modern and little ancient. The cover could help balance it
